[Tipsy Giant]

The most attractive figure hasn't changed since the 50s in my opinion

[Oh That Dude]

Male, not trying to achieve size zero because I imagine I'm somewhere close naturally. As for those trying to achieve it, if that's an important thing to you, get help/better friends/better social circle. Well, I wouldn't mind a skinny guy, not so sure about a skinny girl. Size zero may just be pushing it.

 

[Cheery Lunatic]

-Female

-...sort of

-Not exactly "become a size zero" but just lose weight. I think every girl feels that there's at least a part of their body that is sort of big. I'm a size 1 (or 3 depending) and I know that's pretty average but I can't help how I feel. :|

-As long as they go about it healthily, I don't see what the problem is.

-My friend's a size zero, and she's petite not anorexic. She looks nothing like the picture posted. That's like triple zero, brah.

-It can be.

Are you trying to achieve size zero? Hells no...
Why/Why not? Schweetie, I've never been less than a (UK) size 10 in my life (well, once I bean-pole'd my way out of kids' sizes...), and people thought I was too skinny then, me included...
What's your view of others trying to achieve size zero? Stupid. And dangerously unhealthy.
What's your view of others who have achieved size zero? As above, plus, they look hofficically malnourished.
And most importantly, is size zero actually attractive? Hell no. Skin and bone is never a good look. Pity that (seemingly at least) UK fashions seem to cater more for girls without any boobs or bum.

Female, and no, I definitely would not try to achieve size zero. I'm at a healthy weight, and besides, the average Aussie women is a size 14 or thereabouts, and I'm a size 8 (US size 4, I think), so my self-esteem in that respect is fine. If I ever feel bad about my appearance, I just go outside and have a look at the average Australian. Besides, most stores don't carry a size smaller than 6, so I can't imagine where I'd shop if I was a size 0.

I just don't like hearing about people who eat, what, 600 calories a day, and idolise superthin models. Wanting to be fit and healthy is one thing, but losing weight for purely cosmetic reasons to resemble an unrealistic ideal is ridiculous. I can't help but think it's pointless. I mean, there are so many other ways to feel good about yourself without turning into a stick.

And no, I don't find it attractive at all. There's something rather frightening about people who are that thin. It looks really unhealthy, for either gender. Aside from the fact that I would never date a guy skinnier than me, I also wouldn't want to sleep with a girl who was essentially skin and bone. I have a friend who stopped going to school for almost a year due to an eating disorder. It's not just the weight loss - they have no energy, their skin looks awful, their nails and hair are all brittle and dead looking - it's just not good.

Male.

Noh.

I'm a guy. I am size small. This is fine. Though I did have anorexia.

Pity, really. No-one should do it to themselves, it's just not attractive.

If it makes them happy, then good for them, it's up to themselves what they do with their body, I suppose.

No. I find it unattractive because...well, a bit of flesh is good haha, not just bone. I also liek bewbz.

 

[Souplex]

I'm male, 6'4'' and my shoulders scrape the sides of subway turnstiles. There is no way I could be a size zero without massive amounts of surgery.
It looks hideous on wimmenz, the only people I could see finding it attractive are those with a weird fetish.

 

[Turbo_Destructor]

I'm not a fan of size 0 myself, I like some curves on my women, size 0's have an unfortunate tendency to look like 12-year-olds.

 

[Ekonk]

No, it is disgusting.

 

[Kenjitsuka]

I am size zero, and male.
It's awesome on women too!

 

[Serenegoose]

Male or female? Female
Are you trying to achieve size zero? Nope. I'm trying to get back to a UK size 10.
Why/Why not? I don't think I'd look good like that, and I'm not interested in being thin, just in no longer being fat.
What's your view of others trying to achieve size zero? Their call.
What's your view of others who have achieved size zero? I know some people who achieved it accidentally. I view them the same way as I view everyone else on earth. They're humans, worthy of the same respect and dignity anybody else deserves
And most importantly, is size zero actually attractive? I know someone who's that small who's quite cute - she didn't put any effort into it and wishes she could gain weight. It all really depends on the body and whether it's proportional or not. It wouldn't be on my frame, but it is on hers. All there is to it, really. Also,I dispute that this is the most important question. The important question is 'are they happy?' which is entirely subjective and up to the individual in question.

 

[crazyfoxdemon]

size zero is just way to unattractive... It's not even about the disgusting way their body looks.. But I like a woman that's active.. and no woman who looks like that could be active even if they wanted to...

 

[Mcface]

its gross looking. I like thin girls, not sticks.

male
no(trying to get into shape for the army)
if i was size zero, i wouldn't be able to do push ups.

 

[yizas]

Male
Not really
Im a bulky guy, i want to be kind of built but not riped
I dont think much of them, whatever makes them happy i guess
i dunno, they got what they wanted and i dont really care

Not really, i dont mind women being a little chubby, but i prefer an average body for women not skinny or fat just average

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

Male
No
I think it is ridiculous and anyone who is that thin should only be so by genetics and not by their own choosing as if you do not get that thin by genetics you are probably severely malnurished.
I think it is ridiculous and pointless and will probably destory their body in the first place but it is their choice to do so.
If that is the life they choose then fair enough.
I do not find size zero attractive. There has to come a point where everyone draws their line and says they are too thin but size zero is a bit too far to draw that line in my opinion well by choice as I acknowledge some people are like that due to their lifestyle/genetics and not a self image choice.

Male or female? Male
Are you trying to achieve size zero? Nope
Why/Why not? I'm an athlete - strength and fitness is the way to go. Looking good comes with that, not starving yourself. Right now I'm a bit overweight and out of shape due to a few years behind a desk, which is being fixed by lots of healthy eating and exercise.
What's your view of others trying to achieve size zero? Stupid and dangerously unhealthy.
What's your view of others who have achieved size zero? See below
And most importantly, is size zero actually attractive? It depends entirely on the girl.

I went to uni with a girl who is stick thin - she had basically no body fat, and weighed about 55kg while being about 5'9. However she was healthy, ate plenty (more then me) and was extremely athletic and active (dance and cheerleading) - she just had a naturally thin body and a fast metabolism. I went to the beach with her a few times and in a bikini she looks exactly how those models are TRYING to look - slim but correctly proportioned.

I actually ran into her the other day - still skinny as she used to be and looks fantastic.

However.. girls who starve themselves to attain that stick thin look when their body shape is clearly not are just plain unattractive.

Perfect example is my girlfriends sister - looking at pictures of her from a few years she is an absolute knockout - a very pretty girl. However she went on a diet before getting married, dropped 10 kilos and it just doesn't suit her. Her face looks gaunt, he breats have gone from full and attractive to looking like they're just hanging off her chest and overall she's just less attractive.

So yes - naturally skinny girls look fine. Those that force themselves to be do not.

edit: oh and guys? Same applies, though you see less of it. Fit and healthy is best, regardless of your body shape.

 

[Kukakkau]

No no no no no

If you find that attractive, you're probably suffering from necrophilia​

Also yeah, male and what-not. Got no issues with people trying to hit size 0... on the other hand I've got no issues with people trying to kill themselves either.

I won't say "I like fatties" as I find the opposite extreme of size 0 equally disturbing, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder and although I prefer men and women to be more on the skinny size, skeleton-size is a definite no-no and a sign of some form of disturbance (as is anyone in XXXXL section as well)

BLLLEEEEGGGHHHHH *wipe* NO!

 

[Yureina]

- Classified.
- Absolutely not.
- Because I don't want to be that thin/unhealthy.
- Sad. They should not have to go that far to be happy with their body-image
- They tend to be unhealthy and unattractive. People who have made themselves suffer in the name of some society expectation.
- I don't see how anyone could find that attractive.

Funny... Put this video on and then mute and start the Shakira vid as the music kicks in on Baby got back.
OT: I didn't mention this earlier, but... Size Zero is just way too skinny for my taste. In case it wasn't obvious i'm quite fond of a nice round tushie ;3

 

[Double A]

Male.
Hell no.
Because I don't want to go outside and be blown away on a windy day.
They don't like eating or being able to ride safely in roller coasters.
Zombies are scary.
HELL. NO.
